Kendall Ellis – 1826 Senior Spokesmodel 2025

It’s #SeniorPicSunday, and today we’re featuring the beach-loving, cheerleading queen herself—Kendall Ellis! ❤️📸

Kendall is a senior at Perkins High School and a cheerleader, so she wanted her senior photos to reflect everything she loves most—especially the beach! Originally, she planned to split her sessions across different seasons for variety, but when fall graced us with unseasonably warm temps, she decided to go all in on beach, beach, and more beach! ☀️🏖

The Ultimate Beach Senior Session 🌊🏝

To capture different coastal vibes, we explored a mix of sandy, rocky, and scenic waterfront spots:

🍷 Gideon Owen Winery – A charming, elegant location that added a sophisticated touch to her session with brick architecture and lush greenery.

⛰ Catawba Cliffs – A rockier shoreline, adding a bold, coastal feel to her gallery.

🏖 Nickel Plate Beach – We hit the sand bright and early for a fresh, golden morning session at 10 AM! The soft light and peaceful shoreline made for the perfect beach portraits—proving you don’t need sunset to capture dreamy beach photos!

A Mini Cheer Session at Perkins High School 📣🖤

Kendall’s session wouldn’t be complete without capturing her love for cheerleading! We met up at Perkins High School for a fun mini session celebrating her school spirit. And because no cheer session is complete without your squad, she brought along her BFF & fellow 1826 Spokesmodel, Caitlyn, who cheers alongside her at Perkins!
